Airbus Receives Orders for VIP A340s
China Daily | Jan. 30, 2007
European plane maker Airbus said on January 29 that it has received orders for two "VIP versions" of its ultra long-haul A340 aircraft from two new customers.
The customers did not want to be identified, an Airbus spokesman said. One customer ordered an A340-500 and the other ordered an A340-300, the company said.
The ultra long-haul A340s refer to airplanes that typically target individual, government and business customers. The VIP versions offer different interiors to those of commercial airlines.
